750,000 Meals and Counting: Altair Global and Move For Hunger Renew Partnership

June 25, 2024

In 2009, we began mobilizing transportation networks to bring food to communities in need. Since then we’ve created a network of over 1,200+ transportation partners committed to reducing food waste. Altair Global has been an integral part of this effort, and we’re thrilled to announce that the team-up continues as we enter our eighth year of partnership! 

For 35 years, Altair Global has been delivering exceptional mobility experiences to customers and clients worldwide, focusing on experience management (XM) to drive continuous improvement and innovation of relocation services. Altair Global began working with Move For Hunger in 2012, officially becoming a partner in 2016. Altair Global’s efforts have allowed us to transport 758,833 meals and counting to those who need it most.


“Our ability to fight hunger by reducing waste within our own industry is of particular importance to us. Move For Hunger enables us (and our network of supplier partners) to play a direct role in the shared responsibility we all have to be sustainably impactful corporate citizens”. -Chad Sterling, CEO of Altair Global.


As an active part of our network, Altair Global hosts food drives and fundraisers all year round. In December, Altair Global hosted their 4th annual Grinch-themed food drive to help feed food-insecure Texans over the holidays. With the help of their partners and support from the local community, the Grinch Food Drive has provided more than 95,000 meals to those in need.


“Altair Global has been an incredible partner for so many years now,” said Adam Lowy, Executive Director and Founder of Move For Hunger. “We couldn’t be more excited about continuing our partnership together!”

Inflation & food insecurity are on the rise

Cuts to SNAP benefits and inflation have had a devastating economic impact and filled the lines at food banks and pantries across the country. More than 47 million Americans including 1 in 5 children are struggling with food insecurity and do not know where their next meal is coming from. 

For people of color and other minorities, the situation is even worse. Hunger disproportionately affects the Black population, the Latinx community, LGBTQ+ individuals, and more. 

USDA TERMINATES FOOD SECURITY REPORT 

September 22: The USDA announced termination of future Household Food Security Reports USDA, which had tracked hunger nationwide for nearly 30 years. The most recent data revealed that one in seven households — 47.4 million people, including 13.8 million children — were food insecure. For more than three decades, the report was been the gold standard for measuring whether a household lacks consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life. “Eliminating data collection strips away the evidence that proves these programs work, where investment is needed, and who is being left out,” Crystal FitzSimons, president, Food Research & Action Center said in a statement.
